This is a simple little formula that, fed regularly to your tree, will keep it fresh, fragrant and green far longer than water alone. It’s tried and true!
The first week is a critical time to keep the water level checked daily, and sometimes twice a day.
1 quart HOT tap water (hot water aids in circulation)
1 T. liquid iron (keeps the tree green). This is found in the garden section of stores.
2 T. light corn syrup (feeds the tree). This is found in the baking aisle of your grocery store.
1 T. laundry bleach (fights bacteria and fungi)
Happy Holidays!
